Turkish Documents for University Admissions
This page is for admissions offices, agents, and credential evaluators handling Turkish diplomas. It does not replace the diploma legalization hub.
The step checklists omit
Turkish university diplomas need YÖK (high school: MEB) after provincial attestation and before Ministry of Foreign Affairs or apostille. Hague destinations do not skip it. The confirmed in-person/POA rule is recorded on diploma for the UAE.
Destination after YÖK
- Hague universities: destination guides such as Canada, Germany, Netherlands.
- UAE: embassy legalization, diploma cluster above.
- Translation rules: sworn vs certified.
POA linked below is for holders who cannot appear at YÖK. Use the destination where that POA will be shown.
We will not publish a diploma×Kuwait or diploma×Saudi cluster until those YAML cases are confirmed.

Frequently asked questions
Is apostille enough for a Hague-country university?
It is the usual Turkish final stamp, but YÖK or MEB verification still sits in the Turkish chain before apostille. The university may also want a sealed transcript or its own portal.
Does the student have to be in Ankara?
YÖK verification expects the holder or a first-degree relative, or a power of attorney so someone else can appear. Plan that before offering a remote-only timeline.
Can you match WES and a university offer in one apostille?
Not as one product. ECA bodies and universities often want different envelopes. Confirm each receiving checklist.
